Drought crisis: consumption remains far too high

Dam storage levels are at 37,4%, with useable water at 27,4%. Consumption remains too high, at 600 million litres of collective usage per day. This is 100 million litres above the crucial consumption target of 500 million litres per day.

Water usage must be reduced immediately. End
